i know i'm about 6 months late to this party, but, what a great post :-) i've only just done a search to find out if this far casting was some new technique of casting at the range of a long bow.... turns out it is just casting out of melee range :-P so, yeah, nice post :-) the one gripe i have in pking is that the old system pk system was scrapped. in the old days, if you attacked another player in the wildy, you were considered a monster and were skulled, with the disadvantages that entails. this encouraged palidin like pker pkers who mopped up the really poor quality pkers without becoming skulled themselves. when they brought out the abyss, they changed this so anyone fighting in the wildy was skulled as well as the rune crafters (of whom i am one) this eliminated any bonus a pker pker had over a pker and encouraged the poor quality pkers. as a runecrafter using a zammy portal, i fully expected to be the target of pker pkers as i was helping the enemys of the free lands, but instead, i simply flee from those seeking easy kills. hmm, i guess it's to my benifit as well as those calling us noobs as we traipse pase... :-)
